:o Well someone obviously put a lot of time and effort into it once.
However it is very individual, so unless someone does buy it for the paintwork................. :-?

Sorry but I'd repaint it...............

As an aside I notice rot on the front wings, usual place, by the door, you can make it out if you look and it is mentioned in the text, along with the crossmember and jacking point, I bet there's more too, so you'd probably end up having to repaint it anyway and to get that design matched would cost allot more that a simple one colour respray.

Worth restoring though.

Regards,
Mike.

I have to wonder what madness comes over folk who do this........ Possibly the same madness that puts 'stone cladding' on the front of a house...... :roll: :cry:

Advertising for Alton Towers' new ride is for people to 'Get Corrected'. The people who did both these cars need to be at the front of the queue!

If it was inspired by the Beatles 'Abbey Road' I might say 'Cool'...................
But sadly I'd say it was more likely inspired by someone's weird taste in wallpaper...........
